High sodium intake is linked to increased risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke.

Really!

Then why is it that when you go into the hospital the first thing they do is hang a bag of saline over your head and let it drip into your arm?

Sodium Chloride is the primary electrolyte in your blood stream.

Or is this just more disinformation from the medical deep state (creeps like Fouchie)

they use Ringer’s solution for IV fluid:

Ringer’s solution, also known as Lactated Ringer’s or Hartmann’s solution, is a balanced crystalloid solution used for fluid and electrolyte replacement. It contains various salts like sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride, and sometimes lactate. It is used to restore blood volume, treat dehydration, and correct electrolyte imbalances, particularly in situations like blood loss, burns, and certain medical conditions.
